Arithmetically maximal independent sets in infinite graphs
نویسنده
چکیده
Families of all sets of independent vertices in graphs are investigated. The problem how to characterize those infinite graphs which have arithmetically maximal independent sets is posed. A positive answer is given to the following classes of infinite graphs: bipartite graphs, line graphs and graphs having locally infinite clique-cover of vertices. Some counter examples are presented.

A semidefinite programming hierarchy for packing problems in discrete geometry
Packing problems in discrete geometry can be modeled as finding independent sets in infinite graphs where one is interested in independent sets which are as large as possible. For finite graphs one popular way to compute upper bounds for the maximal size of an independent set is to use Lasserre’s semidefinite programming hierarchy. We generalize this approach to infinite graphs. For this we int...
متن کاملDifferent-Distance Sets in a Graph
A set of vertices $S$ in a connected graph $G$ is a different-distance set if, for any vertex $w$ outside $S$, no two vertices in $S$ have the same distance to $w$.The lower and upper different-distance number of a graph are the order of a smallest, respectively largest, maximal different-distance set.We prove that a different-distance set induces either a special type of path or an independent...
متن کاملA STRUCTURAL CRITERION FOR THE EXISTENCE OF INFINITE CENTRAL A(p) SETS
We classify the compact, connected groups which have infinite central A(p) sets, arithmetically characterize central A(p) sets on certain product groups, and give examples of A(p) sets which are non-Sidon and have unbounded degree. These sets are intimately connected with Figà-Talamanca and Rider's examples of Sidon sets, and stem from the existence of families of tensor product representations...
متن کاملGlobal Forcing Number for Maximal Matchings under Graph Operations
Let $S= \{e_1,\,e_2, \ldots,\,e_m\}$ be an ordered subset of edges of a connected graph $G$. The edge $S$-representation of an edge set $M\subseteq E(G)$ with respect to $S$ is the vector $r_e(M|S) = (d_1,\,d_2,\ldots,\,d_m)$, where $d_i=1$ if $e_i\in M$ and $d_i=0$ otherwise, for each $i\in\{1,\ldots , k\}$. We say $S$ is a global forcing set for maximal matchings of $G$ if $...
متن کاملMaximal independent sets in bipartite graphs with at least one cycle
A maximal independent set is an independent set that is not a proper subset of any other independent set. Liu [J.Q. Liu, Maximal independent sets of bipartite graphs, J. Graph Theory, 17 (4) (1993) 495-507] determined the largest number of maximal independent sets among all n-vertex bipartite graphs. The corresponding extremal graphs are forests. It is natural and interesting for us to consider...
